Don't apply any abrasive to the points, just clean them & give them a light coat of WD-40. The points do not pass any current, so no real arcing happens.

Follow what Chris says about diagnosing them. You don't need an ohm meter, just a $1 test lamp is all you need. If one of the points is not opening, all you can do is bend them around to make them open again, but that's only a temporary fix. Absolutely do not bend them unless you're 100% sure they are worn out & not opening.
